Emerging strategies to overcome ovarian cancer: advances in immunotherapy.

Ovarian cancer is the second most common malignant neoplasm of gynecological origin and the leading cause of death from cancer in the female reproductive system worldwide. This scenario is largely due to late diagnoses, often in advanced stages, and the development of chemoresistance by cancer cells. These challenges highlight the need for alternative treatments, with immunotherapy being a promising option.

The impact of lipid metabolism on breast cancer: a review about its role in tumorigenesis and immune escape.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the second most frequent type of cancer in the world and most common among women, configuring a major challenge to global health. BC is a complex and heterogeneous disease that can be subdivided into distinct tumor types based on the expression of molecular markers predicting patient outcomes and response to therapy. A growing number of studies have tried to expand the known markers by investigating the association of altered lipid metabolism with BC immune escape, progression, and metastasis.
